Roadside Barn in Brown County, Indiana

I captured this old falling barn while driving north on IN135 towards Story, Indiana.  This was a tough shot,  as the barn sits right on the road.  It was a beautiful and usually warm March afternoon.  Captured with my D200 and my trusty Nikkor 18-200mm vr lens. Minor post processing in LR4,  which by the way is almost a first for me. Almost always use Photoshop.  The new version of Lightroom is great.

Old Kentucky Barn

I captured this barn while traveling in Eastern Kentucky a couple of weeks ago. This was in the Red River Gorge area. A wonderful and very scenic area to visit. Click the image for a larger view and to see some of my other work. Thanks for stopping by.

Red Barn and Snow

There  is something really eye catching when I see a red barn up against a snowy background.  I felt it was very important in this image to also give some focus to the entire landscape surrounding this barn.

Hopefully you enjoy this is as much as I do. Have a great week!

Mail Pouch Barn

Another image from my trip 2 weeks ago to southern Indiana.  This old Mail Pouch barn has definitely seen better days, but then again, most all of these old barns are getting in this type of condition. This image was captured with my Nikon D200 using my 18-200 F5.6 VR lens  and Hoya HD Pro circular polarizer.

When I initially began shooting seriously, my main focus was on the Mail Pouch barn.  I now shoot all types of barns while out and about.  Feel free to browse my barn gallery at Country Roads Photo.

Have a nice holiday weekend!

Red Barn

This is one of my drive by shooting barns.  Located right on the highway, I stopped and quickly rattled off 2 shots.  This image was captured with my Canon G11, which is with me most of the time.  Great little camera when you don’t want to drag out the big gear.  There is another shot of this barn on my website you can see here.

Have a great day!

Stormy Day

Following the high winds and finally some rain in the area yesterday, we are left with almost no autumn color.  High winds will continue today.  Photo opportunities still abound here in South Central Indiana.  Trying to get some work done around the house , but hopefully this evening the ole Nikon will be hard at work.

For this post I have included an image captured last fall on one of my drives home from northern Ohio.  My Tokina 11 -16 F2.8 wide angle lens was used for this capture. You can see a larger image here.

Have a great day!!

Have a great day.

Colors of Autumn

This image was captured last weekend in Bartholomew County, Indiana. The autumn colors this year are very subdued due to the ongoing drought. See this image larger by clicking here.

Have a great day!

Mail Pouch Barn

Mail Pouch Barn, Ohio

Originally uploaded by Lyle C

While taking a long day trip yesterday into Ohio, I stumbled across this old Mail Pouch barn. This is located on highway 42, close to Waynesville, OH.

These barns are getting harder and harder to find, so you can imagine the excitement when one of these shows up along side the road. The time of day for this shot was not my favorite, but I made do with what I had. This was shot with my circular polarizing filter attached to my Nikkor 18-200 VR lens. I also used some fill flash to bring out some color and detail in the barn. View this image larger by clicking here.
